Baptist Mission Schools defend JAMB Registration Fee
By Ibukun Emiola
Ibadan, May 1, 2021 The Director of Baptist Mission Schools, Nigerian Baptist Convention, Dr Tide Olalere, has defended the N4,700 fee charged by the school for registration of the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Olalere, who at a news conference on Saturday in Ibadan, refuted the news of extortion making the round on social media, explained why the school charged the amount for UTME.
The JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede had in a video clip interviewed a student and a teacher of Baptist Girls’ Academy, Obanikoro Lagos, over the fee charged for UTME registration, where both quoted different amounts.
A video had surfaced online of the registrar questioning a candidate from the school as regards the fees paid for JAMB registration in the school and the student was heard saying N8, 000.
